That’s Japanese cars though and whilst a big generalisation I’d say they’re mainly owned by a certain crowd....

I didn’t go today but my dad and his friend went and they said the same nothing to wow you.

Sadly it’s the same again next month with hot hatch Sunday. Despite registering my car for it I know they’ll be tons of 500’s, ST’s and Clio’s. again hot hatches also attract a certain crowd that is not to my liking, although I may dress up to fit in like the revival.... baseball cap, vape in hand and skinny jeans....

Would've been cool to see more KEI cars there... but they can only display cars that apply I suppose...

(I saw the Honda S660 which was cool ... cool)

Nice morning out. Particularly enjoyed the 6500cc Hondas but was sad not to see some special Subarus. 1 P1 but no 22Bs etc.

Interesting, I thought it was a great morning and certainly a few wow cars. I think people need to stop being so judgemental to be honest, baseball cap? so what? Every culture/subculture is likely to have a youth element and everyone has to start somewhere. Some people can afford to spend a fortune on a flagship model performance car or imported classic, others can't – doesn't mean they can't buy the lower/cheaper model and still come along for the sts and giggles.

Got to say that the Jap scene, or more specifically the Honda scene down south, has some of the nicest, selfless and enjoyable people to be around that I've met. And yes, some of them wear baseball caps.

I wear a baseball cap I was more describing a look as a bit of a joke which is why I referenced the revival and was primarily aimed at the hot hatch crowd which I’m a part of.

I have many friends with Jap cars (I previously had a lower model jap car that I’d bring along for sts and giggles) however I didn’t actually describe the “certain crowd” for the Japanese crowd. But the certain crowd isn’t young.

Okay, I don't really get the point then.

Maybe yours wasn't an example in that case but PH seems to be full of hate towards, young, 'working class' groups and it gets boring after a while.

I thought it made a refreshing change to see the Jap cars.
It can get a bit monotonous looking at cars that the average person is never going to be able to afford and I certainly wouldn't knock another person's hobby.
Anyone care to post some photos?
